The Future of Beef Production in the European Community

Part of the book series: Current Topics in Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science ((CTVM,volume 5))

Abstract

This incomplete survey has been established from three available sources of information:

  • In the United Kingdom several papers published in Veterinary Record or in the World Review of Animal Production, mostly British MLC and MMB data;

  • In the Netherlands, de Kruif’s studies;

  • In France, a lot of unpublished data, particularly a computer analysis by which performance in the Normandy area is processed.
